There’s something very fishy about Matts day off sick!
The hunt for the Parrot is over for our very own Matt Camille, after 7 years of trying to catch this UK record the wait is over.

“Chris, Simon and I have been friends for a long time and been fishing together for 20 years, so to spend the moment with them in the company of the fish of a lifetime was
just a fantastic experience. I’m still absolutely buzzing.”
To catch this record Carp, Matt’s successful presentation involved a 17mm Specialized Hookbaits S2 pop-up on a rig tied with a size 6 Korda Kaptor hook and a 15lb supple braid hooklink, shed in conjunction with a PVA bag of pellets, groundbait and Hemp Oil.
